Spatiotemporal cellular dynamics of the notochord shape intervertebral disc morphogenesis in the mouse embryo through apoptosis and proliferation

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The notochord is a midline structure essential for vertebrate embryogenesis, contributing to the development of the nervous system, digestive tract, and vertebral column. In particular, notochord signaling is indispensable for proper patterning and coordinated development of alternating vertebrae and intervertebral discs (IVDs ...

Signal transduction in neurons: effects of cellular prion protein on fyn kinase and ERK1/2 kinase

open access: yesImmunity & Ageing, 2010
Background It has been reported that cellular prion protein (PrPc) co-localizes with caveolin-1 and participates to signal transduction events by recruiting Fyn kinase.

The Role and Therapeutic Potential of Voltage‐Gated Potassium Channel Kv1.3 in Metabolism‐Related Disorders

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over the past three decades, the global burden of common metabolic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and atherosclerosis has steadily increased, becoming a serious public health issue that poses a major threat to human health worldwide. Potassium channels, particularly the voltage‐gated Kv1.3 subtype, serve as critical regulators of cellular

The trafficking and targeting of P2X receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The functional expression of P2X receptors at the plasma membrane is dependent on their trafficking along secretory and endocytic pathways. There are seven P2X receptor subunits, and these differ in their subcellular distributions because they have very ...

Role of caveolin-1 in fibrotic diseases

open access: yesMatrix Biology, 2013
Fibrosis underlies the pathogenesis of numerous diseases and leads to severe damage of vital body organs and, frequently, to death. Better understanding of the mechanisms resulting in fibrosis is essential for developing appropriate treatment solutions and is therefore of upmost importance.

Engineering exosomal cargo loading via endogenous molecular pathways: Strategies to enhance therapeutic potential

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
This review illustrates how scientists engineer exosomes by hijacking the cell's own cargo‐sorting machinery. These strategies efficiently load therapeutic molecules into natural vesicles, creating powerful next‐generation drug delivery systems (Created with BioGDP.com).

Small and large intestine express a truncated Dab1 isoform that assembles in cell-cell junctions and co-localizes with proteins involved in endocytosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Disabled-1 (Dab1) is an essential intracellular adaptor protein in the reelin pathway. Our previous studies in mice intestine showed that Dab1 transmits the reelin signal to cytosolic signalling pathways.

With Regard to the Expression Status of Sarcolemmal Aquaporin 4 in Human Muscular Dystrophies

open access: yesNeurology and Clinical Neuroscience, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human muscular dystrophies are inherited muscle‐wasting diseases caused by the various kinds of gene mutations. Among them, Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a representative type. Before the discovery of the causative dystrophin gene of DMD, the fragile myofiber plasma membrane was thought to be the trigger of myofiber necrosis in DMD ...

Caveolin-1 sensitizes rat pituitary adenoma GH3 cells to bromocriptine induced apoptosis

open access: yesCancer Cell International, 2007
Background Prolactinoma is the most frequent pituitary tumor in humans. The dopamine D2 receptor agonist bromocriptine has been widely used clinically to treat human breast tumor and prolactinoma through inhibition of hyperprolactinemia and induction of ...
